Comment 1 Miguel Sousa Filipe 2002-12-17 21:54:28 UTC
--(quark)-(pts10)-(03:33/18-Dez-02)--
--(m3thos#:/usr/portage/kde-base)-- emerge xmms -p

These are the packages that I would merge, in order.

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/libglade-0.17-r6 [2.0.1-r0]
[ebuild  N   ] dev-util/indent-2.2.6 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/oaf-0.6.10 
[ebuild  N   ] dev-util/guile-1.4.1 
[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/gconf-1.0.8-r3 [1.2.1-r0]
[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r2 [2.0.4.1-r0]
[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/control-center-1.4.0.5-r1 [2.0.3-r1]
[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/gnome-panel-1.4.1 [2.0.11-r0]
[ebuild   R  ] media-sound/xmms-1.2.7-r15 

this happens when I have gnome in the USE variable..
the question is... I have gnome2 installed and running in this system.. 
but xmms wants to downgrade that to gnome1 versions of some gnome related packages.
Also .. I don't understand the need for:
 indent(indentation engine),
 oaf(this i don't know if is used for gnome2, maybe only for gnome1 since i have
gnome2 and that wasn't installed), and
guile(scheme interpreter) ..

Am I missing something.. or shouldn't xmms be happy with the gnome2 versions of
the installed packages?

well, xmms only has support for gnome1, but I do not know how backwards
compatible gnome2 is for it.
Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-12-18 06:20:35 UTC
xmms is gtk/gnome1, thats just it. And the deps seem fine to me: one of the
gnome-base packages probably   uses scheme -> guile probably needs ident (just
guessing here, check the ebuilds for exact deps). oaf is gnome1 too. No, all
looks fine to me.

When you use gnome2 mainly, just set USE -gnome. The only thing that probably
will miss noticably  is the desktop item.
